Statements regarding future production are based on the assumption of project sanctions and mine production. benefits of our innovation and improvement projects assume that the projects are completed as planned, and work as anticipated. We do not wholly own certain of our projects. Events or circumstances could cause actual results to differ materially. Factors that may cause actual results to vary include, but are not limited to: factors noted in the various slides, footnotes and oral presentation, unanticipated developments in business and economic conditions in the principal markets for Teck’s products or in the supply, demand, and prices for metals and other commodities to be produced, changes in power prices, changes in interest or currency exchange rates, inaccurate geological assumptions, changes in taxation laws or tax authority assessing practices, legal disputes or unanticipated outcomes of legal proceedings, unanticipated operational difficulties (including failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate in accordance with specifications or expectations, cost escalation, unavailability of materials and equipment, government action or delays in the receipt of permits or government approvals, industrial disturbances or other job action, and unanticipated events related to health, safety and environmental matters), assumptions used to generate our economic analysis, decisions made by our partners or co-venturers, and changes in general economic conditions or conditions in the financial markets.
